About

Maintained by Shikhar TyagiFirst published 2026-07-301 releasesCRAN page ↗

Goodness-of-fit tests for an arbitrary user-specified continuous distribution under Type-II right- or left-censoring. Implements the transformation-based method of Lin, Huang and Balakrishnan (2008) doi:10.1109/TR.2008.2005860, which uses a property of order statistics due to Malmquist (1950) to convert an r-out-of-n Type-II censored uniform sample into a complete sample of size r, alongside the earlier transformation of Michael and Schucany (1979) doi:10.1080/00401706.1979.10489813. Also implements the direct (untransformed) censored-sample statistics of Barr and Davidson (1973) doi:10.1080/00401706.1973.10489108 and Pettitt and Stephens (1976) doi:10.1093/biomet/63.2.291, and the modified-statistic maximum-likelihood procedure of Chen and Balakrishnan (1995) for testing composite hypotheses. General background on empirical-distribution-function goodness-of-fit methods follows D'Agostino and Stephens (1986, ISBN:982-0-8247-7487-5).

Install

R (CRAN)Ubuntu (r2u)Fedora (COPR)openSUSE (OBS)

install.packages("gofmalm", repos = "https://cloud.r-project.org/")

Installs the current CRAN release. Prebuilt binaries on Windows and macOS.

Release

# enable cranapt (r2u) if it is not already set up, then install
grep -rqs r2u.stat.illinois.edu /etc/apt/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ \
  || curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/eddelbuettel/r2u/master/inst/scripts/add_cranapt_noble.sh | sudo bash
sudo apt install -y r-cran-gofmalm

Fast Ubuntu binaries via r2u (no compilation). The cranapt setup runs once and is skipped when it is already enabled.

bspm (used by r2u) also needs make: sudo apt install make

# enable the iucar/cran COPR if it is not already present, then install
ls /etc/yum.repos.d/*iucar*cran*.repo >/dev/null 2>&1 \
  || sudo dnf copr enable -y iucar/cran
sudo dnf install -y R-CRAN-gofmalm

RPMs from the iucar/cran COPR, rebuilt from CRAN.

For install.packages() integration in R, also: sudo dnf install R-CoprManager

# add the autoCRAN OBS repo (Tumbleweed) if it is missing, then install
zypper -q lr | grep -qi autoCRAN \
  || sudo zypper addrepo https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/devel:/languages:/R:/autoCRAN/openSUSE_Tumbleweed/devel:languages:R:autoCRAN.repo
sudo zypper install -y R-gofmalm

RPMs auto-built from CRAN on openSUSE OBS (Tumbleweed).
